vent the toredo and barnacles from afiecting 'such materials.

A further objec of the invention is the provision of a paint having certain inorganic compounds which are not oxldized y exposure to The elements and which are capable of being mixed with water and sprayed or applied by a. brush to wood of all kinds for exterior use and in which the paint not only forms a protective coating but partially impregnates the wood at its surface to render such wood impervious to the attacks of the toredo and barnacles.

This invention will be best understood from a consideration of the following de tailed description; nevertheless it is to be understood that the invention is not confined to the disclosure. being susceptible of such changes and modifications which shall define no material departure from the salient features of the invention as expressed in the appended claim.

In carrying out my invention I employ a t of any well known type such as linen Application filed May 22, 1925. Serial No. 32,1

bauxite, kaoline, Verm lion Wills? Z1 0 il Ier that may ocher sad '5 or chromium or any well known ewor 'e in with drvin oilS. To any one of the above named ingredients is added calciu su hatergvhich is well burned pre 11' le mixing and sodium silicate. The ingredients are thoroug 1 y mixer and the mass is finely pulveriaed in a mill and water is added in suili cient quantities an oroughly incorporated in the pulverized material in the usual paint mill. The quantity of water added will be sufiicient to be able to apply the paint readily by a brush or by means of a spray.

The ingredients are mixed in the followmg proportions, that is, 80% filler, 10% calcium sul hate. and 10% sodium silicate.

ltw1II be readily seen tlia t b'y' tlie'use of such ingredients thoroughly incorporated and mixed with water to form a paint that I have provided a composition which will not be acted upon when exposed to the elements and thereby be oxidized to render the paint valueless in a. short period of time. The coat of paint readily dries and forms a hard coat having an excellent smooth finish.

This paint is also applicable for use in painting automobiles and Pullman cars.

TVhat I claim is:

workable with a brush or spray.
